Who says releasing extra pounds can't be fun? Janice Taylor would like you to know that taking a lighter approach can make you lighter.
Janice is a svelt, weight-loss artist, author, certified hypnotist and weight-loss coach, but it was not always so. On her way to becoming the creative, fully expressed woman she now is she had to remove 50 pounds of what no longer served her. And she did that in 2001.
In this fun, at times wacky, guide to lightening up forever the author mixes tips, anecdotes, tricks and recipes to help you on the journey. First stop? Forgiveness.
When she was visited by Our Lady of Weight Loss, patron saint of Permanent Fat Removal, many years ago, she was told that this was not just about losing weight and exercise. She was "embarking on a holistic happening. "
The fun begins at the beginning even in the early chapters which states the obvious-- this trip goes down a rocky road but help is always nearby. How? With Janice's crazy but powerful collage art pieces which show up all throughout the book, some with messages and exhortations some just speak through their imagery.
Then we are introduced chapter by chapter to hours of things to do to take your mind off food and keep your hands busy.
There are cheers to chant as you move away from the fridge or past the cookie aisle.
There are get out of jail free cards for those times when "The Devil Made Me Do It."
By using this book you'll take a journey into your mind to find out just what sabotages you, where your weaknesses are, and what you don't know that you don't know that keeps you holding on to those extra pounds.
And until you know what will take you off course and how to create real transformation you'll be stuck.
I'd suggest getting this book and having once a week meetings with like minded friends and do some of the exercises together. Make a recipe or two from the book and talk over a "Forgivercize." These are exercises designed to work on your thoughts and your self talk or your behaviors.
What's most striking is that as playful as this book is Janice comes from such a loving, helpful place with her advice, tips and tools.
Take a look and have a giggle. I think this would make a great holiday gift!
